CHAPTER 17
“Are you sure you want to guard Lexis?” I heard Fin asked me while I am spreading the jam on my toasted bread. The morning is so clear and here is Fin still suspicious about my reason.
“You know what? You’re paranoid. I won’t harm Lexis if that’s you’re worried about.” I shrugged and took a bite of my bread. He shifted on his seat, and I felt him glared at me, so I looked at him and raise a brow. He sighed heavily after that.
“I am…worried about you,” he said in silent. I stopped at that and stared at him for a moment. He’s looking away. There’s something made me nervous, and it makes me uneasy. But I erase that idea. It’s impossible. Fin has been my friend since we’re still a little. He feels like a brother to me. He protects me and because of him I learned how to be a brave girl. So, maybe…he also treats me as his little sister.
I c
CHAPTER 18I was so conscious while eating with him. I don’t know what’s wrong, but every bite is awkward for me. I would always steal glances at him and if I’ll notice that he’ll look at me I’ll look away. I hope he didn’t notice that or else I’ll be more embarrassed.The lunch finished quietly. When he stood up, I also did the same thinking that we’re done now and should leave this place but when he looked at me with his cold eyes I stiffened on my place. What the hell? Why am I getting nervous in just one look? This is so new to me. Damn it!“Stay here until my classes finishes. Don’t leave or I’ll know,” he warned. My brows furrowed. We’re now alone in the kitchen because the other nurses are on their work now so I can freely talk to Ronald without getting conscious by the others. But damn I am wrong. Ronald’s eyes are enough to make me feel so conscious. Shit!
CHAPTER 19Doctor Raymond told me that he has something to supervise to, so he left me alone for a moment while I remained in front of the portrait. My eyes were stuck on it while thoughts are circling around my head. There are so many things I want to know. There are so many things that left unanswered. And it’s bothering me. Something is pushing me to find out all about these, something is itching inside me.A minutes after I decided to go back to the kitchen and checked the wall clock there. 30 minutes and Ronald would be here now. I sat down on my chair, and I suddenly felt sleepy. So, without noticing, I fell asleep on my seat, while resting my head and arms over the table.“Mom!” I shouted so she could hear me. We’re now in the forest and mother is looking for an herbal medicine. I don’t know why, mom looks healthy, so I don’t get it why mom is looking for it.“Don’t be so loud, Cristine!
CHAPTER 20I don’t know what’s happening. The nurse is talking nonsense. Why would she say those things to us? Was she insane? She said the same thing! Was it all true? Our mothers are murdered? With whom?“Do…you believe it?” he asked when he noticed my silence. I looked away and continue walking passing by him.“That nurse…also tell me the same thing,” I said almost in a whisper. I am still confused if I will say it to him.“What do you mean?” he asked, he is now walking with me.“She told me…that your mother didn’t die in giving birth to you, she was murdered.” I said without thinking. I felt him stiffened but he can still manage to keep up with my steps. I glanced at him, and I saw his blank expression. I can almost see his face darkened.I stopped in front of the eatery. Ronald also stops and quietly enter the eatery to order for our foo
CHAPTER 21I am still thinking about the mysterious nurse until today. What is her intention? Or…was she telling the truth? I baled my fist in frustration. If she’s telling the truth, I won’t forgive whoever killed my mother. She was the only family I have. I was all alone after she left me. I won’t accept this. Damn! This is all ridiculous.I sighed heavily and didn’t notice that I am now in front of Ronald’s house and the most unexpected is I saw Ronald in front of me, wearing his all-white uniform with his both hands slid down on his pants’ pocket. He was staring at me as I slow down on my steps.“What are you standing there?” I asked as I looked at him. He raised a brow and I saw how his lips rose for a smile. And damn it…his smile is making my heart stop beating. I feel like everything slowed down. Am I imagining things? Damn it!“Because I saw you walking while spacing
CHAPTER 22I was so pissed that I just get any book that my hands could get before I walked out and find a seat where I can read peacefully. And the annoying nerd still had the audacity to seat in the same table where I am sitting. I gave him death glares but he’s acting like nothing. He just flipped his thick scientific books and started to read seriously.I stopped and stared at him a bit. When he’s mad, his face is shouting of handsomeness, when he’s smiling or laughing my world is in a slow motion, and when he’s serious like this…my heart is literally jumping up and down. I swallowed hard and looked away to stop myself from staring too much.I looked at the book I am holding, and my lips parted when I saw that it was a men magazine! What the hell?! I immediately stood up and I heard Ronald chuckling! I glared at him, and he noticed it.“What?” he asked innocently but a smirk is very evident on h
CHAPTER 23After we ate ice cream, we headed in our different path to go back home. I watched his back while the sight of it is going smaller and smaller. While I am walking in the middle of the forest, I can’t help but to over think. I have so many questions in my mind, and it needed an answer. I badly want an answer. If I can just find it in a snap, I am not thinking like this.“Why is a princess walking alone here in the middle of the night?” a baritone voice spoke behind me. I am already sensing him behind me earlier, but I just let it pass as long as he’s not bothering me and now, he decided to talk to me?“Mind your own business, Carlos,” I said grittily. I heard him chuckled, but I still continued to walk like nothing, but he’s still following me behind.“You smelled different tonight,” he said in a whisper, he was so fast that he closes the distance between us in a snap. I gritted
CHAPTER 24I bit my lower lip to stop it from trembling. My emotions are mixing, it was confusing, bad and clouding my mind completely. Alqamar’s words feels like he’s confirming that everything is true!“What do you mean…it’s a bad story to tell?” the tension within me is over to the roof. I won’t be at peace without learning the truth.“Look…I am sure that your mother loves you Cristine. Don’t let Carlos’ words bother you—”“What the hell are you talking about?!” I cut him off because I don’t understand him. My body is so cold. My mind is completely in chaos.He sighed heavily and I can see his problematic face. He’s having a hard time to talk but I don’t care. The only thing important to me is to clear out these things that’s bothering me.“The reason why Zin Lumiere left the pack is because he committed
CHAPTER 25The deafening silence is starting to surround us while we are waiting for our order. I didn’t expect Ronald to be there, waiting for me. I wanted to ask him his reason, but my tongue is tied. Besides, I have other agenda the reason I am here. Since his finals has just ended, I want us to start planning or finding that nurse. I want his cooperation. I am desperate to know the truth.“While we are waiting, let’s talk about something,” I said and seriously looked at him, but he put his elbow on the table and there he leaned his chin like a lazy dog. He was directly staring at me while he’s in that position. I heaved a deep sigh. I need to concentrate even though his eyes are really distracting me.“I want us to find the nurse,” I finally said. He remained serious, though. He didn’t even flinch from what I said. He was just looking at me and it’s starting to annoy me and at the same time,
EPILOGUERonald MadrigalEverything is normal. I have a good life. I grew up without a mother, but I am still contented with my father who devotes himself in his work and for being my father. That’s why I grew up admiring my father. I looked up to him so much that everything he does means so much to me.“Ronald…” my father called me one fine afternoon. I just went out of my room, just finished the new science book that my father bought me yesterday.“What?” I asked and come to him. He was sitting on our couch in the living room while holding a newspaper.“What are you doing in your room?” he asked. My brows furrowed.“I just finished reading the book that you bought me yesterday,” I said. He sighed heavily. Like it’s been his problem all along.“That’s why I don’t want to buy you books. You always lock y
CHAPTER 90We had a great time together. Chairman always understand everything. He always does but sometimes he makes a decision recklessly but, in the end, he always realized his fault and fix everything. That’s why I like him as a boss. He’ll be discharge by tomorrow and will go back to his office.I don’t know if he already talks with Hendrick, but I know Hendrick will also understand his father. I told Chairman that I’ll just do something outside. He just nodded before I left him there. I smirked and was about to enter the elevator to go to Ronald’s office when Rael and Gray appear in front of me. They are breathing heavily like there’s a big problem we are facing.“What the hell is happening?!” I asked a bit worried.“Let’s go outside first, Cristine,” Rael said whimpering. My brows furrowed as my heart beating fast. What is it this time? We went outside.“No
CHAPTER 89I watched Ronald as he sleeps peacefully. We had a rough night and I know he’s still tired. I can’t help but to hide my smile while watching him sleep like this. I feel like we’re free from everything. I feel like we’re the only people here in this world. I thought that I still could stop my feelings to fell so deeply but unknowingly I am drowning slowly.I stared at him the whole morning until he wakes up. He smiled at me and kissed the side of my lips. My heart softened at that move. Damn it!“How long did you stare at me?” he asked huskily. My cheeks flushed but remained staring at him. “I wasn’t staring at you. I just wake up too,” I lied. He looked at me suspiciously while I try so hard not to get caught.“I know when you’re lying, Cristine…” he chuckled and snaked his arms around my naked waist. He pulled me closer to him. The little distance we h
CHAPTER 88A moan escapes my lips as he started to kiss my jaw down to my neck. I can feel the electricity flowing in me. I feel so hot and burning. His tongue grazed my skin as his other hand slowly reached my bottom and lifted me up to make my legs snaked at his waist. I moaned louder when his hands successfully unhooked my bra. He let it fall on the ground as his mouth quickly encircled around my peak. My body arched as a new whirl of pleasure boiled in me.I feel like all parts of my body is on fire. And he’s the flame that controlling that fire and causes my body to burn. I moaned helplessly when he started to lick and sucked my nipple while his other hand is now starting to travel down on my wetness. Damn it! I am too far crazy to even stop him. Damn! I don’t even want to stop him.I want him to continuously touch me. I want him to kiss and touch me like there’re no tomorrow. He pushed me more to lean behind the wall the mom
CHAPTER 87As soon as I went at the lobby, I saw Ronald leaning on his car maybe waiting for me. I walked towards him. He stood properly as he saw me coming towards him.“Are you done?” he asked. I nodded. “Yes,” I answered. He opened the passenger seat of his car. I quietly slid in. He turned towards the driver seat and entered the car.“Are you sure that you don’t want to live with me?” he asked still trying to persuade me to live with him. I didn’t look at him and fixed my eyes on the window as the car passed by every establishment.“We already talk about this, Ronald,” I said seriously. He didn’t speak again after that until the car stopped at the house where Alqamar and Rael, Gray are living. I can’t believe that I manage to live with those three for five years.“Should I live with you instead?” my eyes widened when Ronald said that. I immed
CHAPTER 86My brows furrowed and stepped backwards so that I could stay away from him. I don’t know why Hendrick is suddenly like this.“Why are you asking?” I asked trying to sound nice to him. I don’t want to be rude to him because he’s still my boss and he’s been kind to me, but I hope he won’t invade my space again. He looked away. He noticed my indifference towards him. He stepped backwards and slid his both hands inside his pocket.“N-Nothing…I’ll…leave now. Watch dad while I’m gone,” he said quickly and left the room. I stared at the door where he went outside, still confuse of what’s happening with Hendrick. I sighed heavily and just sat down on the couch near me. I rested my head and stared at the ceiling.Until now I still could feel Ronald’s touches on mine. It feels like every touch of him marked on my skin. It was so deep that it was so h
CHAPTER 85Pleasure filled my body. I feel burning in Ronald’s every touch and when he filled me with his long and hard shaft, I moaned so loud. I feel like everyone in the hospital heard me! Damn it!I can feel Ronald’s power as he entered me. Every time he touched me, I am burning, my whole body feel so heated as his warmth dominate me. I didn’t know that an idea of doing it here in one of the empty spaces here in the hospital makes me so crazy. It feels…exciting. It was in between excitement because of breaking the rules. Damn it! I’ve never known that Ronald like this kind of things.After some powerful pump I felt my thousand spasms come within me. I moaned in pleasure as Ronald come next. We both breathed heavily. Our heavy breathings are the first thing we did after those heated moments. He rested his forehead on mine. His sleepy eyes are staring at me. I swallowed hard as his lips rose for a smirk.&ldq
CHAPTER 84I watched Ronald as he put the plate in front of me full of foods. He cooked our breakfast after what happened in the bathroom. I didn’t know that Ronald has all that energy in this early morning. I can’t help to feel my cheeks warmed as I remember what happened to us inside that bathroom. I don’t think I could forget that.He sat down in front of me with also the plate in front of him. “Let’s eat now,” he said so I nodded and started the food. This is not the first time I tasted his foods he made but it’s still really delicious. I am still amaze that someone a guy like him can cook like this.“What do you want to do, today?” he asked after a while. My brows furrowed at what he said. I stopped eating and focus my eyes to him.“You have word today, Ronald.” I told him. He looked at me. “Tonight’s my duty,” he said. So…he’s free this mor
CHAPTER 83I woke up feeling peaceful the next morning. I feel like I am in the safest place, and I just want to stay right here. I opened my eyes and saw Ronald sleeping next to me. Something in my heart pinched. Seeing Ronald beside me first thing in the morning makes me so happy but at the same time hurt. I’ve been longing for him for so many years and I couldn’t believe this is happening.I am straddling my arms around his waist while his arm is around my waist. I smiled as I traced my eyes in each corner of his face. He’s not wearing any glasses right now. I remember the first time I saw him without it, I was completely captivated and until now I can’t believe that there’s nothing change instead it intensified.My eyes started on his soft hair, it was shiny and black. His brows are thick and long. They are damn beautiful. His eyes were deep. I can see his long thick black eyes lashes from here. His nose is so poin
